Place plays a significant but often unacknowledged role in health and happiness. The right place elevates personal well-being. It can help promote purpose, facilitate human connection, catalyze physical activity, support financial health, and inspire community engagement. Conversely, the wrong place can be detrimental to health. For many of us, the pandemic has raised the importance of where you live but evaluating and finding the best place for you can be challenging.

In this episode, you'll discover:

  • The key tenets of successful aging, including the role of place as a direct and indirect driver for a long, healthy, and financially secure life
  • How to think broadly about place - it is much more than the four walls of your home
  • Tips on evaluating the fit of your current place 
  • Next steps to improve your current place or how to find and move to another place
  • How to talk to family about possible changes in place
